Stevie — Country Timeline

[David]

This timeline is part fact and part forecast. I’ve been thinking about Stevie’s history with country songs and how fans have occasionally asked Stevie to do a country album.

1950s — AJ bonds with Stevie and performs with her in local bars.

1970s — Stevie writes a bunch of good country songs, including “That’s Alright,” “Garbo,” “The Grandfather Song” (“sing like you mean it / sing those timeless country songs”), “Leather and Lace,” and “After the Glitter Fades.”

2000s — Stevie sings “Red River Valley” on TV.

2000s — Stevie performs country songs with Lady Antebellum, Dixie Chicks, and a few others.

2024 — Beyoncé releases Cowboy Carter to much acclaim.

2025 — Stevie’s management convinces her to record a country album to ride Beyoncé’s coattails.
